Reckless Abandon
Sorcery
As an additional cost to cast Reckless Abandon, sacrifice a creature.
Reckless Abandon deals 4 damage to target creature or player.

right, if you sacrifice Fanatical Firebrand or Reckless Lackey for their own effect, or for a Goblin Grenade/Reckless Abandon, you cannot also sacrifice them for another spell as well. Goblin Grenade and Reckless Abandon aren't triggered abilities.

sacrificing is a cost for Reckless Abandon and Goblin Grenade, and you can't sacrifice a creature for multiple costs simultaneously.

Balaam__ I did decide to replace Goblin War Strike with Reckless Abandon, for two reasons. First, in the end really isn't enough goblins in the deck to warrant a big hit with War Strike, and it would be too inconsistent. With Reckless Abandon it's going to be a more consistent 4 damage, and in a perfect scenario I can trigger both, Fanatical Firebrand and or Reckless Lackey sacrifice to trigger both Reckless Abandon and Goblin Grenade at the same time. Up too 10 damage for two mountains? I'll take it lol, even if it's a slim chance.

@NeoLegacy there’s a path toward running both, but you’d need to implement more pseudo-protection to keep your goblin count as high as possible for a worthwhile payoff. Red is notoriously bad at shielding stuff, so you’d want to incorporate cards like Borrowed Hostility or Crowd's Favor in conjunction with buffs like Barge In to grant them First Strike so they leave combat relatively unscathed. I think to run both Goblin War Strike and Reckless Abandon together you’re looking at a different core deck structure.
I realize I’m peppering you with possible directions to take the deck, but that’s half the fun—deciding what path you’d like to take and then optimizing for it. You have a really good base here that could go a number of different routes, but I’d definitely recommend picking just one and doubling down on it in order to stand the best possible chance of a win.
-edit—oops, I confused Reckless Abandon with another card! My mistake.

Balaam__ I could potentially see replacing, Goblin War Strike with Reckless Abandon. It would be more consistent, I’ll have to chew on that idea.

There are some other good direct damage spells that revolve around sacrificing a creature. I’m not sure which, if any, you’ve already considered so I’ll list some of the better ones.
A shift in strategy might be necessary to fit them in, but I wanted to bring them to your attention nonetheless.

Harrow would have been god tier if it was red. Green already has much better ramp. They definitely could have done more with sacrifice for red. It already fits into the theme. I love using red cards like Fling and Reckless Abandon.

Satyr Firedancer the opposite of Imodane.
Fiery Impulse, Fiery Temper, Shard Volley or Reckless Abandon are worth considering.
Thunderclap and Fireblast are free.
